Technology Employed
It is recommended that Intel Macs be used for both the workstation computers and the servers. Work stations should have Mac OSX 10.5 (Leopard), Intel/PowerMac G5 or G4, 10 GB of hard drive space and an Internet connection to the server. MySQL Pro and VPN are highly recommended.

There is not a Windows version of MacPractice. However with new technology it is possible for Windows applications to be used on a Mac computer. The company is always developing bridges to Windows-based applications from MacPractice for their clients.

With this software you can do imaging, attachments, scheduling and include notes in your patient’s medical records.  There are more than one hundred interactive practice management reports that can be displayed on any terminal.
